THE TRIUMPH GROUP.
Another Property Which Will Resume
Its Place Anon. Our Ore. Producers.

The Triumph group of mines, on
the East Fork of Wood River, is
improving right along. The vein in
the lower workings which is at a
depth of some 400 feet, already shows
a width of 35 feet of ore which aver
ages 20 ounces silver and Is per
cent. lead per ton-and the footwall
not yet reached. How much further
it is, remains to be determined. as
soon as it shall be reached north
west and southeast drifts will be run
from the tunnel level, to determine
the extent of the ore body--aftcr
which concentrating works will doubt
less be constructed, to put the niue
on paying basis.
The Triumph group yielded some
100000 worth Of FIRST class ore in the
upper workings; but as depth was
attained the vein widened, and the
ore became of corresponding low
grade. Tunnels run in about every
hundred feet, on the slope of the
mountain, tapped the vein, which was
thus shown to run quite regularly, and
to carry an ore body steadily increas-
ing in width. The lower workings
having demonstrated the existence of
a mine, the Triumph Company will
soon take effective steps to exploit IT.

HON. l. W. GARRETT SPEAKS.
He Signed the Ruick Bills as Deputy
Recorder, and not rs Deputy Audi.


tor.
To rHE EpIroE OF thu TIAEs:--
In report of the proceedings in
the District Court, published in the
TINES several days since, it was stated
that N. NJ. RACK had demurred to an
indictment presented against him by
the grand jury at its October session,
on the ground that the indictment
charged him with swearing falsely to
q claim against the county, and that
said oath had been taken before /.
w. Garrett who had signed the jurat
as Deputy Auditor instead of Deputy
Recorder, claiming as the ground for
said demurrer that neither the Audi.
tor nor his deputy was authorized to
administer the oath. Since that time
the Court has sustained the demurrer,
and the indictment has been thrown
out of court.
Since the little fable has served its
purpose, and the responsibility of this
fatal blunder has been thrown on me,
desire to say through the columns OF
the TINES that the statement is utter
ly untrue, and that in the case in
point as we'll as in all other similar
cases, signed as"Deputy Recorder"
and not as deputy Auditor" as the
papers on file will show. I did not
prepare the indictments, nor present
them, and am in nowise responsible
for them, but object to being held
up before the public gaze as a blum
derer, when the proof is so easily
found IN the Office of the Recorder
and Auditor showing that the blum
der was not committed in this office.
